"No need. I, for one, don’t like to linger on feelings."
What a statent about not liking to linger on feelings.
Zhao ngjin’s mouth curled up in a smile, she thought.
She headed to the hotel, just as Tang Sili had ntioned, her mother was already looking out the window, wondering where she had gone and why she hadn’t returned yet.
Tang Sili turned around, intending to try his luck at the Gu Family’s place.
Unexpectedly, the manager knew he had co here and sent him a text ssage directly, "Co to the mountain."
Zhao ngjin had almost been kidnapped by villains in the county town. Soone had happened to pass by and rescued her. These news reached Xiao Yebai through Uncle Qi, and when Xiao saw the photo taken by the rescuer, wasn’t that Tang Sili?
It just so happened that both he and his wife needed to change their dications; Tang Sili had effectively brought himself to them for service.
At that mont, Xiao Yebai suddenly forgot that his in-laws were completely unaware of his wife’s injury.
Lunchti.
The freshly picked vegetables were washed, chopped, and Gu’s mother stir-fried an egg and vegetable dish on the spot, along with a plate of stead chicken to speed things up.
When Uncle Qi brought Tang Sili to the estate, he arrived just as the scent of delicious food wafted through the air, making his stomach growl audibly.
Inside, the manager’s family was eating. Tang Sili felt embarrassed to impose for a al and whispered to Uncle Qi, "Just make a bowl of noodles."
"There are no noodles here; everything needs to be self-sufficient," said Uncle Qi, his serious expression no joke.
Tang Sili, a capable person himself, couldn’t help but stiffen, unsure of what to do.
Fortunately, Gu’s father and mother were naturally hospitable people. Seeing a new face, they didn’t think twice before calling out, "Co over and sit."
They treated Tang Sili, an employee, directly as their son-in-law’s friend.
Xiao Yebai certainly wouldn’t deny this in front of Gu’s father and mother.
A look of montary astonishnt appeared on Tang Sili’s face.
This fleeting expression was noticed by Xiao Yebai, Gu Nuan, and Zhang Sanfeng.
Gu Nuan thought, the discussions about Tang Sili coming from humble backgrounds must certainly be true.
Tang Sili indeed saw a glimpse of his folks back ho in Gu’s father and mother in that instant.
Gu’s father went to fetch another wooden stool.
Gu’s mother brought over another pair of chopsticks and a bowl, filled it with rice, and prepared it all for Tang Sili.
Tang Sili expressed his gratitude several tis, set aside his single-person luggage bag, took off his overcoat, and approached the dining table, looking inconspicuously towards the manager for permission to sit down.
Xiao Yebai’s lack of objection was taken as a silent nod.
Tang Sili sat down and picked up his bowl.
It was almost two o’clock, past the normal lunchti, and with everyone famished, all the dishes and ats in the estate, brimming with the essence of nature, tasted fresher and more delicious than any five-star restaurant’s offerings.
The group quickly cleared the table of dishes, and Gu’s mother realized that the vegetables she and Gu’s father had picked were not enough. They would need to prepare more for the evening al. However, since Uncle Qi knew they were there, the dinner might not necessarily require Gu’s mother to take charge as the main chef.
After the al, Gu’s father and mother felt a bit tired and left the young ones to clean up while they rested in a room arranged by Uncle Qi.
Zhang Sanfeng sat in the lazy sunlight, half-squinting, seemingly tempted to drift off to sleep herself.
First, Tang Sili changed the manager’s bandages.
